What is the maintenance cycle of street lamp poles
1. Regular Maintenance Cycle
Rural Solar Street Lights: It is generally recommended to conduct a check once a week, especially after encountering severe weather conditions such as strong winds and heavy rain, and promptly inspect the battery panel, controller, and battery status to ensure there is no water ingress or line damage.
Urban Road Street Lights: The maintenance cycle is usually once every quarter or half a year, including cleaning the lamps, checking the power lines, and replacing aging components, etc.
2. Key Maintenance Contents
Cleaning and Inspection: Regularly clean the dust and dirt on the solar panels or lamp surfaces to ensure light efficiency; check if the cable connections are loose, and whether the controller and lamp source are working properly.
Anti-corrosion and Structural Safety: Check the anti-corrosion coating of the steel lamp poles, repair damaged areas; check the flexibility of the steel wire ropes and sliding parts, and replace damaged electrical or mechanical components .
Electrical System Maintenance: Test the battery voltage and controller output to ensure normal charging and discharging functions; replace aging or faulty LED lamp beads.
3. Factors Affecting Maintenance Cycle
Environmental Conditions: Frequent inspections of anti-corrosion coatings and electrical components are required in coastal or high-humidity areas; the cleaning frequency should be increased in areas with frequent sandstorms .
Lamp Type: Smart street lights (integrating sensors, 5G base stations, etc.) require more professional maintenance and the maintenance cycle may be shortened to once a month .
Usage Intensity: Street lights in high-traffic areas (such as commercial streets, transportation hubs) have frequent use and thus have shorter maintenance cycles than those in low-traffic areas .
4. National Standards and Contract Agreements
National Standards: The specific maintenance cycle is not clearly defined, but regular maintenance is required to extend the service life (the national standard service life is 15 years, but the actual duration can reach more than 20 years) .
Contract Agreements: The maintenance cycle may be clearly stipulated in lease or engineering contracts (such as once a week or once a month), which is subject to the terms of the contract .
Summary
The maintenance cycle for street lamp poles usually ranges from once a week to once every six months. It needs to be adjusted flexibly based on the environment, type, and contract requirements. Regular maintenance can extend the service life and ensure the lighting effect.
